On again/Off again wood turner. More or less as time and finances permit. I've seen quite a bit of down times of late and had to put most of my "hobbies" on hold. I think I've turned the corner and cleaned out the old workshop.

I turn, currently on my old, busted Rikon midi that is so tired and beat that its really a miracle it still works. Looking to upgrade soon. I prefer local, self sourced hard woods - meaning mesquite, mesquite, and not oak. Oh and Pecan! I'm not big on intricate details, more into form and flow, another reason I need a new lathe, I like to make things big.

I'll post pics eventually. I'm not the best at remembering to take pictures and from time to time I have a computer die and lose what I have. I can find them on social media (proof positive that if you post stuff out there, it never dies.) I've given away most of my work, have a few scattered around the house, a bunch of bowls here at the office for paper clips, etc.

Never been much for selling my work. Partly because its not amazing and partly because I'm too critical of my own work anyway. I do it to make sawdust, use the scraps for BBQ wood, and make Christmas shopping easier.
